I don't know if it looks like a monkey or not. But I think it's an improvement on the robot. Plus the robot was just a template from Blogger, and this is something I created. It probably shows. :-)

Anyway, the football, then. England lost. But it was a valiant enough effort. To be honest, I hadn't really thought they'd get this far. Last Friday I found some "good luck England" things to put up at work, and I said maybe we ought to put them up because it might be the last day we could use them. Because they were playing on Saturday, you see. And I didn't think they'd win. A lady overheard me and said I wasn't very optimistic. Heh.

I don't really care about football, though. I care about England doing well, because as a nation we seem to get so caught up in it. There were St. George's crosses everywhere. On cars, on houses, on people... It was the first time I remember everyone getting so visibly involved. But I don't actually care about the football side of things. I don't watch football usually, and although most men seem to watch the World Cup even when they don't usually watch football, I can't be bothered. I have F1 to keep me occupied. I don't need football! But I did watch the second half of the match this morning. When Brazil scored two goals to our one. Drat.

That Rivaldo person is annoying, though. I believe he was fined because he fell over clutching his face when he got kicked in the thigh. Well, today he was touched on the shoulder and he held his face and grimaced in pain. Honestly, what sort of wimps are these people? It's weird, really. David Beckham's out there on a broken foot that's not completely healed, and Rivaldo's hamming it up. (What a strange expression.) I know why he did it. To get someone sent off. But... it's just not cricket, is it? If you argued with a cricket umpire that'd be it. Maybe they ought to introduce genteel cricketing rules to football. :-)

Oh, and the other thing is to do with Holly Valance, again. Sorry to keep bringing this up. Heh. Um, there was a bit in the paper, you see. Alesha Dixon, from Mis-teeq, said, "We'll leave the naked videos to Holly Valance. We're about music and selling music so we'll be keeping our tops on." Their very skimpy tops, I presume? Hmm. I did notice, incidentally, that you don't see Kylie's bottom at all in her latest video! I think it's called "Love at First Sight". You only see her top half, and she's wearing a fairly modest top. So, yes.

Goodnight. :-)
